Hat tip to BP’s Kevin Goldstein for alerting me to the good news. SB Nation’s Dallas blog notes that Odor is a key addition to the Rangers’ burgeoning “All-Name Team” that also includes Wilmer Font and Jurickson Profar. Looking over the Rangers’ MiLB Baseball-Reference page for the shirt-season A-ball Spokane Indians, I’m also quite fond of Odubel Herrera, Guillermo Pimentel, Geurris Grullon, and Ovispo De Los Santos — the Rangers are indeed stacked. At AA they had Emerson Frostad, Elio Sarmiento, Blake Beavan, and the fake-sounding Mark Hamburger and Ryan Falcon. They have a chance to be a baseball-name force for years to come.

The Indians have employed Rougned's uncle, Rouglas Odor, as a minor league manager or coach for the past 10 seasons, including the last two seasons as the hitting coach for Kinston. (Hitting coach! Odor's career minor-league batting line is .248/.299/.324)

And yet, he couldn't deliver his 16-year-old prodigy of a nephew to the Tribe. That's gratitude for you.
